Monitoring the System Status
The LEDs on the front panel of Tiger Serve1 allow you to monitor the system status.
You can monitor the system activity without removing the front panel bezel:
Monitoring Connectivity
You can monitor the connectivity of the appliance to the storage using the LED
indicators on the FC ports.
You can monitor the connectivity of the appliance to the network using the LED
indicator on the 1GbE ports (Public and Admin).
FC ports
Your configuration can include a 8 Gb FC card. The FC card is set up to work in auto
mode i.e. its port transmits data depending on the connectivity mode of the storage’s
(or the switch’s) FC card. You can view the transmission mode through the FC port
using the LED indicators above it. If the FC port LED’s light is off the port is inactive.
